I think boards are old-world internet, lenny. People don't create boards for new phenomena like Oscar Isaac anymore.

Twitter is actually kinda cool once you figure it out. Took me a long time to get the hang of it.

i'll be honest, i haven't invested much time into it...but from what i've seen i just really don't like the format

i'm more a fan of a message board as i feel it's more conducive to establishing a loving community

Right. I pretty much use it to stay informed on my fav celebrities. It's more of a news source for me.

You liked Into The Storm? I thought it had some good visuals, but the story was seriously lacking...

Funny, visually attractive (naturalistic outdoor cinematography is a real rarity these days), and it has genuinely exciting set-pieces. I dug it. Don't really give a fuck about story, especially in movies like this. I also thought there was some actual depth in the "time capsule" contrasting done between the beginning and end of the film.

Have you guys ever completely flip-flopped on a movie? I used to think The Assassinaton of Jesse James was great but I'm rewatching it now and Christ this is terrible.

It happens a lot to me. It makes you realize how much your mood can affect what you get out of a movie.

Totally disagree with this. I don't believe in allowing mood to affect critical thinking; a movie's components are fixed.

The difference here is how much my mindset has changed after watching this years ago.

I try to get to an objective place, but it's very difficult/perhaps impossible.

Well I'm not saying I'm objective either. I just don't let mood affect my thoughts on a movie's quality.
